I Took It For 2 Weeks Only

And it done me in . I got asthma, sinusitus and paralysis for a year, I know someone else had liver failure on it.
What can you say it works for some and not for others.

Perhaps your ra flared up after you stopped, this is a powerful drug

best wishes

Thanks for replying. I'm feeling better now. I just wondered if coming off the nasty stuff so quickly, got my whole body whacked! I'm not taking it anymore, ever! Remicade is working fine for me right now. So i'll worry about the rest later when I need to.

Have anyone though of lifestyle change like selective diet and herbs? Simple and natural foods can help, our ancestors were better off in most chronic diseases.
